Raspoutine DemiBold Italic by Dimitri Castrique of the.bend is a free high-contrast italic serif with a sweeping, fashion-minded profile. Broad curves narrow abruptly into fine joins, and the steep slant keeps the lettering moving. Its pointed details give the strokes a crisp finish.
Fashion editorial is its most natural territory, especially on magazine covers and feature openers. The dramatic curves also suit perfume packaging, boutique branding, and formal event invitations, where the lettering can echo ribbons or flourished line art. It is particularly convincing as a magazine masthead.
